Please could you tell me a bit more about nuVa Enterprises?
nuVa Enterprises is a human machine collaborative interface, which resembles a real face-to-face virtual meeting solution. The nuVa concept is based on research from the multi-national defence industry, sponsored by Doctoral research at Cambridge University and collaborations with MIT USA, King’s College London and Surrey University. This research looks much further than the use of ‘desktop style’ virtual meeting software, as it focused on the sociology and psychology behind the way people interact with each other at meetings.
What projects is the company currently involved in?
Showing our feelings and emotions is a natural form of communication, and we must be able to replicate this through virtual meeting software and not restrict collaborative capabilities as most media do.

Pitch drive controllers from KEB play a central safety role in wind turbines
08 February 2021
KEB Automation is seeing an increase in demand for its drive controllers, motors and brakes for onshore and offshore wind turbines.
Pitch and yaw drives, pitch motors, as well as pitch and yaw brakes from KEB, are proving popular as a central safety component in wind turbines, including the latest high-power (10MW and above) turbines. The trend is clearly towards ever larger, more powerful wind turbines, says Sebastian Eicke, Applications Engineer in the wind energy team at KEB Automation. This is closely linked to the repowering of existing plants and the expansion of offshore wind farms.
This is one of the first times AI will be used to personalise sound. Everyone perceives 3D, or spatial, sound differently thanks to the particular shape of their ears and head, and so high-quality simulations must be uniquely tailored to each individual.
The researchers will employ AI and a data-driven approach to link the physiological characteristics of the ear to the individual acoustic filters which allow people to hear where sound is coming from. This will provide personalised audio spatialisation from only a small amount of data acquired from users.
Imagine a virtual meeting space where you see colleagues to your right, left, and across from you. We want to make this possible in audio form. Dr Lorenzo Picinali Dyson School of Design Engineering
